Visual Inspection Performance and Evaluation Visual inspections shall verify (1) that there are no visible indications of damage or impaired OPERABILTY, (2) bolts attaching the snubber to the foundation or supporting structure are secure, and (3) snubbers attached to sections of safety-related systems that have experienced unexpected potentially damaging transients since the last inspection period shall be evaluated for the possibility of concealed damage and functionally tested, if applicable, to confirm operability. 1 Snubbers which appear inoperable as a result of visual inspections may be determined OPERABLE for the purpose of establishing the next visual inspection interval, providing that (1) the cause of the rejection is clearly established and remedied for that particular snubber and for other snubbers that may be generically susceptible; and (2) the affected snubber is functionally tested, if applicable, in the as-found condition and determined OPERABLE per Specification 4.7.9.e. Hydraulic snubbers with inoperable single or common fluid reservoirs which have uncovered fluid ports shall be declared inoperable. When hydraulic snubbers which have uncovered fluid ports are tested, the tests shall be performed by starting with the piston at the as-found setting and extending the piston rod in the extension mode direction. Also, snubbers which have been made inoperable as the result of unexpected transients, isolated damage or other such random events, when the provisions of 4.7.9.g and 4.7.9.h have been met and any other appropriate corrective action implemented, shall not be counted in determining the next visual inspection interval. d. Functional Test Schedule, Lot Size, and Composition During each refueling outage, a representative sample of 10% of the total of the safety-related snubbers in use in the plant shall be functionally tested either in place or in a bench test. ^ The inspection interval shall not be lengthened more than one step at a time.

PLANT SYSTEMS SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (Continued) d. Functional Test Schedule, Lot Size, and Composition (Continued) ' The representative sample selected for functional testing shall include the various configurations, operating environments, and the range of size and capacity of snubbers within the groups or subgroups. The representative sample should be weighted to include more snubbers from severe service areas such as near heavy equipment. Unless a failure analysis as required by 4.7.9.1 indicates otherwise, the sample shall be a composite based on the ratio of each group to the total number of snubbers installed in the plant. Snubbers placed in the same location as snubbers which failed the previous functional test shall be included in the next test lot if the failure analysis shows that failure was due to location. ~ l The security of fasteners for attachment of the snubbers to the component and to the snubber anchorage shall be verified on snubbers selected for functional tests. { Functional Test Acceptance Criteria e. The ' snubber functional test shall verify that: 1. Activation (restraining action) is achieved within the specified range in both tension and compression, except that inertia dependent, acceleration limiting mechanical snubbers, may be tested to verify only that activation takes place in both directions of travel. 2. Snubber bleed, or release where required, is present in both tension and compression, within the specified range. 3. The force required to initiate or maintain motion of the snubber is within the specified range in both directions of travel. Also, the increase in the force required shall not exceed 50 percent of the 4 amount required at the last surveillance test of that snubber, provided that the force required is at least 25 pounds. 4. For snubbers specifically required not to displace under continuous load, the ability of the snubber to withstand load without displace-ment shall be verified. 5. Testing methods may be used to measure parameters indirectly or parameters other than those specified if those results can be correlated to the specified parameters through established methods, f. Functional Test Failure Analysis and Additional Test Lots If any snubber selected for functional testing either fails to lock up or fails to move due to manufacture or design deficiency, all snubbers of the same design subject to the same defect shall be functionally tested.

PLANT SYSTEMS l SURVEILLANCE REOUIREMENTS (Continued) f. Functional Test Failure Analysis and Additional Test Lots (Continued) If more than two snubbers do not meet the functional test acceptance criteria, an additional lot equal to one-half the original lot size shall be functionally tested for each failed snubber in excess of the two allowed failures. An engineering evaluation shall be made of each failure to meet the functional test acceptance criteria to determine the cause of the failure. The rasult of this analysis shall be used, if applicable, in selecting snubbers to be tested in the subsequent lot in an effort to determine the operability of other snubbers which may be subject to the same failure mode. (Selection of snubbers for future testing may also be based on the failure analysis.) Testing shall continue until not more than one additional inoperable snubber is found within a subsequent required lot or all snubbers of the original inspec-tion group have been tested, or all suspect snubbers identified by the failure analysis have been tested, as applicable. The discovery of loose or missing attachment fasteners will be evaluated to determine whether the cause may be localized or generic. The result of the evaluation will be used to select other suspect snubbers for verifying the attachment fasteners, as applicable. Snubbers shall not be subjected to prior maintenance specifically for the purpose of meeting functional test requirements. g. Functional Test Failure - Attached Component Analysis For snubber (s) found inoperable, an engineering evaluation shall be performed on the components which are restrained by the snubber (s). The purpose of this engineering evaluation shall be to determine if the components restrained by the snubber (s) were adversely affected by the inoperability of the snubber (s), and in order to ensure that the restrained component remains capable of meeting the designed service. h. Functional Testing of Repaired and Spare Snubbers Snubbers which fail the visual inspection or the functional test acceptance criteria shall be repaired or replaced. Replacement snubbers and snubbers which have repairs which might affect the functional test results shall be tested to meat the functional test criteria before installation in the unit. These snubbers shall have met the acceptance criteria subsequent to their most recent service, and the functional test must have been performed within 12 months before being installed in the unit. i. Snubber Service Life Program The seal service life of hydraulic snubbers shall be monitored to ensure that the seals do not fail between surveillance inspections. The maximum ) expected service life for the various seals, seal materials, and applica-tions shall be estimated based on engineering information, and the seals shall be replaced so that the maximum expected service life does not SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 3/4 7-24 Amendment No. 12 l 1 - - - - - - - ~~ -

r POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES When an F measurement is taken, an allowance for both experimental error q and manufacturing tolerance must be made. An allowance of 5% is appropriate for a full core map taken with the incore detector flux mapping system and a 3% allowance is appropriate for manufacturing tolerance. RTP The F limit for RATED THERMAL POWER (Fxy ) as provided in the Radial xy Peaking Factor limit report per Specification 6.9.1.14 was determined from expected power control maneuvers over the full range of burnup conditions in the core. When RCS flow rate and F are measured, no additional allowances are g necessary prior to comparison with the limits of Figures 3.2-3 and 3.2-4. Measurement errors of 3.5% for RCS total flow rate and 4% for F have been allowed for in determination of the design DNBR value. The 12 hour periodic surveillance of indicated RCS flow is sufficient to detect only flow degradation which could lead to operation outside the acceptable region of op, ration shown on Figure 3.2-3. 3/4.2.4 QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO The quadrant power tilt ratio limit assures that the radial power distri-bution satisfies the design values used in -the power capability analysis. Radial power distribution measurements are made during startup testing and periodically during power operation. The limit of 1.02 at which corrective action is required provides DNB and linear heat generation rate protection with x y plane power tilts. The two hour time allowance for operation with a tilt condition greater than 1.02 but less than 1.09 is provided to allow identification and cor-rection of a dropped or misaligned rod. In the event such action does not 1 correct the tilt, the margin for uncertainty on F is reinstated by reducing q the power by 3 percent for each percent of tilt in excess _ of 1.0. i -SEQUOYAH~- UNIT 1 8 3/4 2-5 Amendment No. 12 m

POWER DISTRIBUTION' LIMITS 3/4.2.5 DNB PARAMETERS The limits on the DNB related parameters assure that each of the para-meters are maintained within the normal steady state envelope of operation assumed in the transient and accident analyses. The limits are consistent with the initial FSAR assumptions and have been analytically demonstrated adequate to maintain a minimum DNBR of 1.30 throughout each analyzed transient. -The 12 hour periodic surveillance of these parameters thru instrument c readout is sufficient to ensure that the parameters are restored within their limits following load changes and other expected transient operation.

t i I 3/4.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM l BASES i 3/4.4.1 REACTOR COOLANT LOOPS AND COOLANT CIRCULATION The plant is designed to operate with all reactor coolant-loops in opera-tion, and maintain DNBR above 1.30 during all normal operations and anticipated transients. In MODES I and 2 with one reactor coolant loop not in operation this specification requires that the plant be in at least HOT STANDBY within 1 hour. 4 In MODE 3, a single reactor coolant loop provides sufficient heat removal capabiliity for removing decay heat; however, single failure considerations require that two loops be OPERABLE. In MODE 4, a single reactor coolant loop or residual heat removal (RHR) loop provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; but single failure considerations require that at least two loops be OPERABLE. Thus, if.the reactor coolant loops are not OPERABLE, this specification i requires two RHR loops to be OPERABLE. In MODE 5, single failure considerations require that two RHR loops be 4 OPERABLE. j The operation of one Reactor Coelant Pump or one RHR pump provides adequate flow to ensure mixing, prevent stratification and produce gradual reactivity changes during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant System. The reactivity change rate associated with boron reduction will, therefore, be within the capability of operator recognition and control. 3/4.4.2 and 3/4.4.3 SAFETY AND RELIEF VALVES The pressurizer code safety valves operate to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its Safety Limit of 2735 psig. Each safety valve is designed to relieve 420,000 lbs per hour of saturated steam at the valve set point. The relief capacity.of a single safety valve is adequate to relieve any over-pressure condition which could occur during shutdown. In the event that no SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 4-1 Amendment No. 12

4 i REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES 4 safety valves are OPERABLE, an operating RHR loop, connected to the RCS, i provides overpressure relief capability and will prevent RCS overpressurization. i to t During operation, all pressurizer code safety valves must be OPERABLE to prevent the RCS from being pressurized above its safety limit of 2735 psig. t The combined relief capacity of all of these valves is greater than the maximum -l surge rate resulting from a complete loss of load assuming no reactor trip until the first Reactor Protective System trip set point is reached (i.e., no credit is taken for a direct reactor trip on the loss of load) and also assuming no operation of the power operated relief valves or steam dump valves. l Demonstration of the safety valves' lift settings will occur only during shutdown and will be performed in accordance with the provisions of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Code. The power operated relief valves (PORVs) and steam bubble function to j relieve RCS pressure during all design transients up to and including the l design step load decrease with steam dump. Operation of the PORVs minimizes the undesirable opening of the spring-loaded pressurizer code safety valves. i Each PORV has a remotely operated block valve to provide positive shutoff capability should a relief valve become inoperable. r 3/4.4.4 PRESSURIZER The limit on the maximum water volume in the pressurizer assures that the I parameter is maintained within the normal steady state envelope of operation assumed in the SAR. The limit is consistent with the initial SAR assumptions. i The 12 hour periodic surveillance is sufficient to ensure that the parameter is restored to within its limit following expected transient operation. The maximum water volume also ensures that a steam bubble is-formed and thus the i RCS is not a hydraulically solid system. The requirement that 150 kw of pressurizer heaters and their associated controls be capable of being supplied l electrical power from an emergency bus provides assurance that the plant will be able to control reactor coolant pressure and establish natural circulation I conditions. r t 3/4.4.5 STEAM GENERATORS The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the kCS will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the-tubes in the event that there is evidence of mechanical damage or-progressive degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also provides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that corrective measures can be taken. i i t r I h SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 4-2 Amendment No. 12 i ,,e ,m,

PLANT SYSTEMS BASES -3/4.7.1.4 ACTIVITY The limitations on secondary system specific activity ensure that the ~ resultant off-site radiation dose will be limited to a small fraction of 10 CFR Part 100 limits in the event of a steam line rupture. This dose also includes the effects of a coincident 1.0 GPM primary to secondary tube leak in the steam generator of the affected steam line. These values are consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses. 3/4.7.1.5 MAIN STEAM LINE ISOLATION VALVES The OPERABILITY of the main steam line isolation valves ensures that no more than one steam generator will blowdown in the event of a steam line rupture. This restriction is required to 1) minimize the positive reactivity ~ effects of the Reactor Coolant System cooldown associated with the blowdown, and 2) limit the pressure rise within containment in the event the steam line rupture occurs within containment. The OPERABILITY of the main steam isolation valves within the closure times of the surveillance requirements are consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses. 3/4.7.2 STEAM GENERATOR PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMITATION The limitation on steam generator pressure and temperature ensures that the pressure induced stresses in the steam generators do not exceed the maximum allowable fracture toughness stress limits. The limitations of 70 F and 200 psig are based on a steam generator RT f 60 F and are sufficient to prevent brittle fracture NDT 3/4.7.3 COMPONENT COOLING WATER SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the component cooling water system ensures that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of safety related equipment during normal and accident conditions. The redundant cooling capacity of this ~ system, assuming a single failure, is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses. 3/4.7.4 ESSENTIAL RAW COOLING WATER SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the essential raw cooling water system ensures that sufficient cooling capacity is available for continued operation of safety related equipment during normal and accident conditions. The redundant cooling capacity of this system, assuming a single failure, is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident conditions within acceptable limits. t SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 8 3/4 7-3 Amendment No. 12

t PLANT SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.7.8 AUXILIARY BUILDING GAS TREATMENT SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the auxiliary building gas treatment system ensures that radioactive materials leaking from the ECCS equipment following a LOCA are filtered prior to reaching the environment. The operation of this system and the resultant effect on offsite dosage calculations was assumed in the accident analyses. ANSI N510-1975 will be used as a procedural guide for ~ surveillance testing. Cumulative operation of the system with the heaters on for 10 hours over a 31 day period is suf ficient to reduce the buildup of moisture on the adsorbers and HEPA filters. 3/4.7.9 SNUBBERS Snubbers are designed to prevent unrestrained pipe or component motion under dynamic loads as might occur during an earthquake or severe transient, while allowing normal thermal motion during startup and shutdown. The con-sequence of an inoperable snubber is an increase in the probability of structural damage to piping or components as a result of a seismic or other event initiating dynamic loads. It is therefore required that all snubbers required.to protect the primary coolant system or any other safety system or component be operable during reactor operation. Because the snubber protection is required only during relatively low probability events, a period of 72 hours is allowed to replace or restore the-inoperable snubber (s) to operable status and perform an engineering evaluation on the supported component or declare the supported system inoperable and follow the appropriate limiting condition for operation statement for that system. The engineering evaluation is performed to determine whether the mode of failure of the snubber has adversely affected any safety-related component or system. Safety-related snubbers are visually inspected for overall integrity and operability. The inspection will include verification of proper orientation, adequate fluid level if applicable, and attachment of the snubber to its anchorage. TLe removal of insulation or the verification of torque values for ~ threaded fasteners is not required for visual inspections. The inspection frequency is based upon maintaining a constant level of snubber protection. Thus, the required inspection interval varies inversely with the observed snubber failures. The number of inoperable snubbers found during a required inspection determines the time interval for the next required inspection. Inspections performed before that interval has elapsed may be used as a new reference point to determine the next inspection. However, the results of such early inspections performed before the original required time interval has elapsed (nominal time less 25 percent) may not be used to lengthen the required inspection interval. Any inspection whose results require a shorter inspection interval will override the previous schedule. When the cause of the rejection of a snubber in a visual inspection is clearly established and remedial for that snubber and for any other snubbers SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 7-5 Amendment No.12

PLANT SYSTEMS BASES SNUBBERS (Continued) that may be generically susceptible and operability verified by inservice func-tional testing, if applicable, that snubber may be exempted from being counted as inoperable. Generically susceptible snubbers are those which are of a specific make or model and have the same design features directly related to rejection of the snubber, or are similarly located or exposed to the same environmental conditions such as temperature, radiation, and vibration. Inspection groups may be ?stablished based on design features and installed conditions which may be exsected to be generic. Each of these inspection groups are inspected and tested separately unless an engineering analysis indicates the inspection group is improperly constituted. All suspect snub-bers are subject to inspection and testing regardless of inspection groupings. To further increase the assurance of snubber reliability, functional tests shall be performed during each refueling outage. These tests will include stroking of the snubbers to verify proper movement, activation, and bleed or release. The performance of hydraulic snubbers generally depends on a clean, deaerated fluid contained within variable pressure chambers, flowing at closely controlled rates. Since these characteristics are subject to change with expo-sure to the reactor environment, time, and other factors, their performance within the specified range should be verified. Mechanical snubbers which depend upon overcoming the inertia of a mass and the braking action of a capstan spring contained within the snubber for limiting the acceleration of the attached compo-nent (within the load rating of the snubber) are not subject to changes in per-formance in the same manner as hydraulic snubbers. Pending the development of information regarding the change during the service of the snubber of the acceleration / resistance relationship and the optimum method for detecting this change, these mechanical snubbers may be tested to verify that when subjected to a large change in velocity the resistance to movement increases greatly. The performance change information is to be developed in order to establish test methods to be used during and after the first refueling outage. Ten percent of the total population of approximately 700 snubbers is an adequate sample for functional tests. The initial sample is to be proportioned. among the groups in order to obtain a representative sample. Observed failures of more than two snubbers in the initial lot will require an engineering analysis and testing of additional snubbers selected from snubbers likely to have the same defect. A thorough inspection of the snubber threaded attach-ments to the pipe'or components and the anchorage will be made in conjunction with all required functional tests. 3/4.7.10 SEALED SOURCE CONTAMINATION The limitations on removable contamination for sources requiring leak test-ing, including alpha emitters, is based on 10 CFR 70.39(c) limits for plutonium. This limitation will ensure that leakage from byproduct, source, and special nuclear material sources will not exceed allowable intake values. Sealed sources are classified into three groups according to their use, with surveil-lance requirements commensurate with the probability of damage to a source in that group. Those sources which are frequently handled are required to be tested more often than those which are not. Sealed sources which are continu-ously enclosed within a shielded mechanism (i.e., sealed sources within radia-tion monitoring or boron measuring devices) are considered to be stored and need not be tested unless they are removed from the shielded mechanism. i SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 7-6 Amendment No. 12 )

3/4.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.8.1 and 3/4.8.2 A.C. SOURCES AND ONSITE POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS The OPERABILITY of the A.C. and D.C power sources and associated distri-bution systems during operation ensures that sufficient power will be available to supply the safety related equipment required for 1) the safe shutdown of the facility and 2) the mitigation and control of accident conditions within the facility. The minimum specified independent and redundant A.C. and D.C. power sources and distribution systems satisfy the requirements of General Design Criteria 17 of Appendix "A" to 10 CFR 50. The ACTION requirements specified for the levels of degradation of the power sources provide restriction upon continued facility operation commen-surate with the level of degradation. The OPERABILITY of the power sources are consistent with the initial condition assumptions of the accident analyses and are based upon maintaining at least one redundant set of onsite A.C. and D.C. power sources and associated distribution systems OPERABLE during accident conditions coincident with an assumed loss of offsite power and single failure of the other onsite A.C. source. The OPERABILITY of the minimum specified A.C. and D.C. power sources and associated distribution systems during shutdown and refueling ensures that 1) the facility can be maintained in the shutdown or refueling condition for extended time periods and 2) sufficient instrumentation and control capability is available for monitoring and maintaining the unit status. The Surveillance Requirements for demonstrating the OPERABILITY of the diesel generators are in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guides 1.9 " Selection of Diesel Generator Set Capacity for Standby Power i' Supplies," March 10, 1971, and 1.108 " Periodic Testing of Diesel Generator i Units Used as Onsite Electric Power Systems at Nuclear Power Plants," Revision 1, August 1977, and 1.137 " Fuel-Dil Systems for Standby Diesel Generators," Revision 1, October 1975. The Surveillance Requirement for demonstrating the OPERABILITY of the Station batteries are based on the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.129 " Maintenance Testing and Replacement of Large Lead Storage Batteries for ] Nuclear Power Plants," February 1978, and IEEE Std 450-1980, "IEEE Recommended Practice for Maintenance, Testing, and Replacement of Large lead Storage Batteries for Generating Stations and Substations." Verifying average electrolyte temperature above the minimum for which the battery was sized, total battery terminal voltage onfloat charge, connection resistance values and the performance of battery service and discharge tests ensures the effectiveness of the charging system, the ability to handle high discharge rates and compares the battery capacity at that time with the rated capacity. Table 4.8-2 specifies the normal limits for each designated pilot cell 8 and each connected cell for electrolyte level, float voltage and specific gravity. The limits for the designated pilot cells float voltage and specific gravity, greater than 2.13 volts and.015 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity or a battery charger current that had stabilized at a low value, is characteristic of a charged cell with adequate capacity. The normal SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 8-1 Amendment No. 12

ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS BASES A.C. SOURCES AND ONSITE POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS (Continued) limits for each connected cell for float voltage and specific gravity, greater than 2.13 volts and not more than.020 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity with an average specific gravity of all the connected cells not more thar. 010 below the manufacture's full charge specific gravity, ensures the OPERABILITY and capability of the battery. 4 Operation with a battery cell's parameter outside the normal limit but within the allowable value specified in Table 4.8-2 is permitted for up to 7 days. During this 7 day period: (1) the allowable values for electrolyte level ensures no physical damage to the plates with an adequate electron transfer capability; (2) the allowable value for the average specific gravity of all the cells, not more than.020 below the manufacturer's recommended full charge specific gravity, ensures that the decrease in rating will be less than the safety margin provided in sizing; (3) the allowable value for an individual cell's specific gravity, ensures that an individual cell's specific gravity will not be more than.040 below the manufacturer's full charge specific gravity and that the overall capability of the battery will be maintained within an acceptable limit; and (4) the allowable value for an individual cell's float voltage, greater than 2.07 volts, ensures the battery's capability to perform its design function. 3/4.8.3 ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT PROTECTIVE DEVICES Containment electrical penetrations and penetration conductors are protected by either de energizing circuits not required during reactor operation or by demonstrating the OPERABILITY of primary and backup overcurrent protection circuit b.eakers during periodic surveillance. The surveillance requirements applicable to lower voltage circuit breakers and fuses provides assurance of breaker and fuse reliability by testing at least one representative sample of each manufacturers brand of circuit breakers and/or fuse. Each manufacturer's molded case and metal case circuit breakers and/or fuses are grouped into representative samples which are then tested on a rotating basis to ensure that all breakers and/or fuses are tested. If a wide variety exists within any manufacturer's brand of circuit breakers and/or fuses, it is necessary to divide that manufacturer's breakers and/or fuses into groups and treat each group as a separate type of breaker of fuses for surveillance purposes. The OPERABILITY of the motor operated valves thermal overload protection and/cr bypass devices ensures that these devices will not prevent safety related valves from performing their function. The Surveillance Requirements for demonstrating the OPERABILITY of these devices are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.106 " Thermal Overload Protection for Electric Motors on Motor Operated Valves", Revision 1, March 1977. Circuit breakers actuated by fault currents are used as isolation devices in this plant. The OPERABILITY of these circuit breakers ensures that the 1E busses will be protected in the event of faults in nonqualified ioads powered by the busses, f a SEQUOYAH - UNIT 1 B 3/4 8-2 Amendment No. 12

RADI0 ACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES ? 3/4.11.2.6 GAS DECAY TANKS Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas decay -tank provides assurance that in the event of.an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents, the resulting total body exposure to an individual at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem. This is consistent with Standard Review Plan 15.7.1, " Waste Gas System Failure". 3/4.11.3 SOLID RADI0 ACTIVE WASTE The OPERABILITY of the solid radwaste system ensures that the system will be available for use whenever solid radwastes require processing and packaging prior to being shipped offsite. This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The process parameters included in estuolishing the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM may include, but are not limited to waste type, waste pH, waste / liquid / solidification agent / catalyst ratios, waste oil content, waste principal chemical constituents, mixing and curing times. 3/4.11.4 TOTAL DOSE This specification is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR 190. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I. For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a member of the public will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR 190 if the individual reactors remain within the reporting requirement level. The Special Report will describe a course of action which should result in the limitation of dose to a member of the public for 12 consecutive months to within the 40 CFR 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the member of the public from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 5 miles must be considered.
